    Summary

    “Where’d you go?” Daniel asks into the quiet. It takes Armand a beat too long to realize the music has stopped. He can’t remember when that happened.

     

    He exhales, watches the light hit the smoke and get tangled up in the haze of the room. The window is open, the night so calm that there’s no wind to stir the air. Traffic is the soundtrack to their days, their nights. As familiar as Daniel’s heartbeat. If Armand turns his head, presses his ear to Daniel’s thigh, he will hear it loud and clear pumping blood through Daniel’s femoral. City sounds echoing through his veins, heart sounds echoing through the streets.

     

    He isn’t sure if Daniel means to ask where Armand’s mind has gone this evening, or where he’s been these past weeks.

     

    Either way, “Too far from you, beloved.”

     

    “Fuck you for that,” Daniel says.

    Summary

    “You doing all right?” Daniel asks him.

    Armand blinks. “No,” he says.

    “Most honest you've been with me since I got here,” Daniel says. And then, because it seems like the thing to do, “I can clear out, if you need the place to yourself.”

    “Whatever you prefer.” Armand's lips look chapped. Dehydration? He ate the kid with the sunglasses, but the smear he left took a lot of bleach to scrub away. Maybe Daniel should - “You won't be harmed,” Armand says, “regardless of your decision.”

    “You got served divorce papers so hard it left a crater,” Daniel says, “and you're still poking around in people's heads.”

    Summary

    Five minutes later, it’s immediately clear this isn’t working.

    “This isn’t working,” Daniel says, and Armand snaps, “I heard you the first time.”

    They’re wrapped up together in bed. Daniel has his head pressed to Armand’s bare chest, Armand’s strong arms encircling him, their legs tangled together. It should be perfect.

    The only problem: Armand is fucking freezing.

    OR: Daniel’s in Calgary reporting on the ‘88 Winter Olympics when the heat goes out in his motel room. Warmth seeking activities ensue.

    (companion piece to the “kiss me through the vampire phone”-verse but doesn't require reading the rest of the series!)

    Summary

    “Months?” The word dropped like a stone in Daniel’s gut.

    “Do you think it’s easy?” A flicker of that old frustration surfaced. “Creating an alternative timeline for someone’s life? It is not something you do on an impulse. And it never completely… fits.” He looked away, the muscle in his jaw ticking. “I had to use your drug addiction as an excuse, a blanket explanation for a lot of the defects and gaps I couldn’t make work.”

    Oh, so it hadn’t been a crime of passion; it had been a creative project. “You spent months brainwashing me?!”

    ~~~
    Daniel wants his memories back. Armand might be persuaded to help him find his way back to him.

    Summary

    Some nights, the wind shakes the branches of the trees so viciously that in the strange seconds between sleeping and waking, Francis believes he's back at sea.

    Francis and James, the expedition's only two survivors, return to England as changed men. But history has a habit of repeating itself, and habits aren't easy to break.
